Tummy Time: It is a Compromise

So Sarah does not always want to do "her exercises". She will if she is in a good mood or WATCHING THE BADGERS. As the 2nd photo shows, the team sometimes makes her a little nervous.

Or.....

Sarah will also work those neck muscles gazing into the baby blue eyes of her beau Will Patel.

Lazy Sunday afternoon

Sarah already loves her cousin Hayleigh's EXERSAUCER and hanging out with Miso.

Mom and Dad's Wild Night Out

So I know this blog is about Sarah, but I thought I'd include a little about her parents. While Grandma and Grandpa Van Groll babysat Sarah for the NFC Championship game, Bill and I admittedly were ready to get our 'drink on'. It has been quite a while since that happened. Bill's Dad and Mom got us tickets in the Miller Section of Lambeau Field which included a few free beers. However, with temperatures in the negative double digits our free beers froze before we could get 1/4 of the way through them. So much for getting our 'drink on'. However, as you can see, Bill was on a mission to finish his MGD before freezing -- waste not want not right????
Other than a terrible Packer game, we enjoyed our night out.

First Casualty

DARN FINGERNAILS.

Every Morning

Every morning between 6:00 A.M. and 7:00 A.M. I do the walk from our bedroom into Sarah's room. One eye closed and one barely directing me as to not run into the wall. I selfishly think to myself that even though she is crying, "she is not done sleeping." I then lean over the crib to and give her my speech: "babies sleep a lot, you are a baby and you not done sleeping, you could do one more hour." However, EVERY DAY, she thinks my speech is funny, instantly stops crying and laughs in my face. Hence, sleep is over and the day starts.

Bundle Up

While Bill and I contemplate how many layers and hand warmers we need for the NFC Championship game this weekend, Sarah bundles up for a trip to Grandma and Grandpa Van Groll's house. GO PACK GO.

Workin' that smile

Sarah already knows how to get what she wants -- SMILE. Bill and I are already nervous for 16 years from now when she starts to date..... who am I kidding - 30 years from now when she dates. The smile still melts our hearts.

She loves her dad

We can already tell Sarah is a Daddy's girl. Whenever Mom can't get a burp out of her or she needs to poop, Dad comes to the rescue. She seems to do whatever Dad says. Oh boy, I sense trouble in the future.

The Cutest Ever

I must admit, we have the happiest baby EVER. She laughs and smiles all the time. We can't get enough of her sweet, sweet smile.
